Small Business Subcontracting & Compliance Support

The contract supports Cummins’ small business participation goals through comprehensive subcontract management, reporting, and outreach initiatives. It focuses on ensuring compliance with federal small business set-aside requirements by facilitating effective engagement with minority-owned, women-owned, and other disadvantaged small businesses, while maintaining accurate records and timely submissions to meet federal obligations. The contractor will be responsible for identifying potential small business subcontractors, monitoring performance, and developing strategies to enhance minority business involvement across Cummins’ supply chain. The work is administered under the Defense Logistics Agency, a component of the Department of Defense, and falls under the NAICS code 541611 for management consulting services. Although no specific location is designated for performance, the efforts are expected to extend nationally to support Cummins’ broader contracting objectives. The contract is structured as a subcontract and does not include a defined set-aside type, indicating open competition with a focus on compliance and outcomes rather than reserved eligibility. The timing of the solicitation indicates the award is anticipated around late July 2026, and all activities must align with federal procurement guidelines to ensure continued eligibility for defense contracts.
